It really isn't just Detroit. (or the US for that matter)

Most of our major corps took a bath "playing banker", problem with that is it's far too tempting for the maufacturing side to needle the financial side into lowering lending standards to keep sales up. Plus their idea of running to the real banking system if something happend blew up in their faces.

We now have a lot of Captain-less ships chugging along at 1/3 throttle because Obama can't stear them all. They'll run aground eventually. What's left of our manufacturing base that the Japanese couldn't destroy the banking industry and now the federal government will finish off.

Can you say "you want fries with that hamburger?", oh wait, the fry machine broke and we can't get parts from the national stock system.

It would be nice if the American citizen could help out his fellow countrymen by buying US products, but Wal-mart opted for the Chinese half cent cheaper light bulb. So there's not much left except, well, the hambuger.

Obama did say you can help by buying mecury-filled compact floresecent lamps (preferably the Chinese made ones at Wal-mart or Home Depot) so we can put a few coal workers in the soup line. The government will eventually build work camps for the coal workers to properly dipose of the mercury (and lead).
